TOP SPEAKERS AT 

CRICKET FRIENDS 

​

THE year has begun so well for

Cricket Friends, with top cricket speakers and lively participation from our members.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

​

​

​

For our opening lunch of 2023, we met at the famous Lord's Tavern. Mark Robinson, head coach at Warwickshire, gave us an insight into player-management as well as his own career highlights: lifting trophies as head coach at Sussex, then guiding England Women to their World Cup triumph in 2017. 

 

Devon Malcolm (above) was our February guest, this time at the Fitzrovia Hotel. One of England's most ferocious-ever fast bowlers, the amiable hero let fly with terrific tales of yorking Viv Richards in 1990, then ripping South Africa to shreds at the Oval in 1994

​

Our members are in great heart. 

We get together every month of the year at Cricket Friends.
